Audiotech is one of the many visionary aliases of Juan Atkins, the Detroit pioneer widely
recognized as one of the originators of techno. Originally released in 1987 on Express Records,
“I’m Your Audio Tech” captures a crucial moment in the evolution of electronic music — when raw machine funk and futuristic minimalism merged to form the Detroit sound. Now, nearly four decades later, this classic returns newly remastered and presented for the first time on Metroplex, the label founded by Atkins himself. The reissue preserves the deep pulse and metallic warmth of the original, giving new clarity to its hypnotic basslines and mechanized rhythm patterns that defined an era of innovation. A timeless piece of Detroit’s musical DNA — meticulously restored for a new generation of listeners and collectors.
